How did you get started on this road of business? What began it all, and what did the path look like along the way?
From a young boy in high school, I watched my neighbors work out and occasionally joined them lifting weights. The passion of fitness grew on me and was my regimen to relieve stress. After years of training and getting involved with marital arts, I decided to start my own business, KP Total Body.
